I'm looking for a Bluetooth Comm System...
Hi Everyone,
I'm looking for a Bluetooth Comm System and I ran across this system on TomTop called, "HY-01S Wireless Motorcycle Helmet Headset Intercom". What I wanted to know is, "Is this any good??? And does anyone have one of these or even use one of these???" The reason being that I'm thinking about buying one of these units, but I really don't want to waste my money on a piece of junk. Anyway if anyone has any comments about this system OR if you can recommend another unit, please let me know... Thanks... Ride safe and take care... Joe... :thanks: |
Look into the Sena brand motorcycle hookups. You can get them at Cycle Gear stores. Here's a link to the 'Bluetooth Communications' tab on their website. Looks like they have a lot of great stuff, but Sena is the only one I have any experience with. Let us know what you go with and how it works out!

I got a fodsports m1s plus and really like it so far, 2 pack for me and my wife was 180. But in the end if you ride with a group get what they use for easier compatibility

I've had great luck with this set off of Amazon. We can stay in communication a good 1/4 mile away and they last quite awhile.. or we can sync to our individual phones and just jam to music. Wife said she couldn't tell I was on the bike when I took a call from her: "EJEAS V6 Pro Motorcycle Helmet Bluetooth Intercom Headset 1200M 2 People Full Duplex Wireless Motorbike Interphone Connect Up to 6 Riders for Motorcycling Skiing and Climbing (2 Pack)"

I've used both sena and cardio systems. the advantage to these is bluetooth. that allows for listening to music as I ride, connected to the phone. also answering calls. Looks like these only have the comm part, which is ok too as long as that's all you need. I'm curious to hear feedback on the quality of these. The problem I see with the EJEAS system posted above appears to be the usefulness of pushing buttons with bulky gloves on.
Let us know what you think of whatever system you end up with. |

Ok, first post here to test things out. I have been riding street bikes for quite a while and I have used both Sena and Cardo. It all really depends on what your needs are. If you are riding 2-up and just want to talk to your passenger the cheapo stuff will work just fine. If you want to talk to just one other bike the cheapo will probably do that just fine. Make sure to look at the range. They don't work around corners in canyons. If you want to listen to music and talk with a group of people get a nicer one like Sena or Cardo. I prefer Cardo. I have one with mesh (lets you talk to a large group) It also has much better quality speakers and quite a few other features. You can pair a different brand com with it that doesn't have mesh and then connect to a mesh group to bring that com into the group. When they say noise canceling they don't mean on the helmet speakers part. It is to block out wind and motor noises when you are talking to other people. If you have a noisy helmet (lots of wind noise) don't even bother with music. You will have to turn it up to a deafeningly loud level just to hear it and it won't be very enjoyable. I hope that helps.

I’ve got the Exo-Com setup from Scorpion built into my Scorpion ADV helmet. I love it! I can listen to music thru my phone and talk to my compadres while
I’m riding. Yak |
